James Cameron
Cameron Writes, Johnstone Directs Sanctum
According to Variety, Rogue Pictures has made a pact with James Cameron to co-write and produce James Cameron's Sanctum, a live action drama to be shot next spring in HD 3-D.
Gary Johnstone will direct.
Sanctum tells the story of a deep-sea diving team headed by a father and son. When the team heads to uncharted depths, a life-threatening crisis occurs. Kind of like the Abyss, but without the aliens or underwater habitat.
Despite taking place under water, being in high definition and 3-D, the film has a surprisingly low budget set at $20 million.
Cameron will be preparing his next 3-D film, Avatar, while working on Sanctum.
Rogue Pictures has been working overtime recently to create pacts with names such as Cameron, Wes Craven and even Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes.
Stay tuned for updates.
